Our Services

Specializing in cruise ship HVAC, Sanitation, Galley and Accommodation Repairs.

Air Handling Unit (AHU) Fabrication & Engineering

We design and fabricate custom Air Handling Units tailored to the specific requirements of marine HVAC systems.
Our fabrication capabilities include stainless-steel housings, structural frames, filter sections, fan chambers, and condensate management components. All units are built for corrosion resistance, service accessibility, and long-term durability in high-moisture environments.

AHU Repairs, Overhauls & Mechanical Restoration

We execute full mechanical restorations for damaged or aging AHUs. Each unit is disassembled, inspected, repaired, and reassembled according to marine engineering standards to restore operational integrity and airflow performance.

We renew and install new cooling, heating, and reheat coils sized for the required thermal load and operating pressure. All replacement coils meet OEM specifications or are engineered as direct-fit replacements with equivalent or improved performance.
